Or like cutting federal taxes in middle an economic upswing. But of course, you fully support that. The GOP doesn't care when or how taxes are...
Except, you know, it does - given that the cause of all their problems is that they lowered taxes.
But I don't think the Senate is on board with that. Dems can kill anything there, and all the major GOP immigration players (McCain, Graham, etc)...
[MEDIA] Looks like they learned nothing from Kansas. Tax Cuts Put Oklahoma In A Bind. Now Gov. Fallin Wants To Raise Taxes Oklahoma taxpayers...
Except Republicans in the Senate aren't really on board with a lot of those things either. The Trump proposal didn't have support of the Senate...
We don't have a lot of data, but so far the only big contract we have is Lorenzo Cain. He has been a 5ish WAR player for the last 4 years. Do we...
Except you're valuing him at previous WAR payment rates. If the whole market is correcting and people are no longer willing to pay $8MM for 1...
TNF's problem is that every team plays once. So a ton of their games are forced to be crappy by default - Cleveland and company all have to get a...
But the question is whether any of that has any predictive value of not. In 2015, Marwin was best as a 2B and 3B. In 2016, he was best as a 1B....

That seems like a great way for institutions to get away with not having safeguards. Oh, our policies didn't work? Let's just fire some people...
Nassar was only a small part of the OTL investigation. It was about dozens of rapes by football and basketball reported and largely ignored by...
Have you considered that where the team was in Winter 2017 is not where they are in Winter 2018? The compelling reasons to sign Beltran to a deal...
He was signed for one reason: veteran leadership on a young team. It's something they have no need for anymore. Besides that, he's the perfect...
One of the underrated aspects of the Astros this past year was roster flexiblity. They could have an injury at any offensive position and not...
Boras does what he can to maximize profits for his players, but complains when teams do the same? He doesn't care one bit about "our fan bases"....
Let's see what happened here. The head of Trump's manufacturing council who's taken business trips with Trump and got a massive tax cut that...
I think every championship they get gives them more leverage and more money from the Astros. Unlike Golden State, there's no salary cap here. By...
